phases of any equipment containing flash memory devices and
also saving time during an updating or upgrading procedure of
such an equipment already being in use. 
     Accordingly, the invention proposes for programming a
flash memory device to program only differences in
information between data already stored in the flash memory
device and new data to be stored.

Abstract: A method for cooling a process stream (201) in which one (217) of a plurality of open-loop
refrigerant streams is cooled by indirect heat exchange with other (221,223) of the open-loop
refrigerant streams in a refrigerant heat exchanger (219) to yield a cooled primary refrigerant

refrigerant stream (231) in a separate process heat exchanger (207), wherein the process refrigerant
stream (231) comprises at least a portion of the cooled primary refrigerant stream (225). The
method is particularly useful in large process plants which require multiple parallel heat

Abstract: A method of detecting a magnetic thread comprises
causing relative movement between the thread and an array
of magnetic heads (2a-2l), each head (2a-2l) generates a
signal upon detecting a portion of the thread. The arrival
of a thread at one of the heads is detected, that head
being denoted a primary head, and the head on each side a
secondary head. Output signals from the primary and
secondary heads are monitored to generate a representation

primary and secondary heads are compared such that if the
magnitude of the output signal from a secondary head
exceeds that from the primary head, the primary and
secondary heads are reallocated accordingly.

Abstract: A wafer property is controlled by a semiconductor processing tool using data collected from an in situ sensor. Initially, data relating to the wafer property is collected by the in situ sensor during a process executed according to a wafer recipe parameters. Subsequently, the process may be adjusted by modifying the recipe parameters according to comparisons between the data collected by the in situ sensor relating to the wafer property and the results predicted by a process model used to predict wafer outputs. A subsequent process utilizing the data collected by the in situ sensor is then executed. In at least some embodiments of the present invention the data may be used for run-to-run control on subsequent wafers processed by the tool.

Abstract: The invention relates to an adaptive Radio Frequency (RF) filter (11), which is particlarly useful as an RF filter in Wireless Local Area Networks (WLAN's). As greater demands are placed on RF systems, for example in WLAN's in order to increase channel capacity by utilizing available bandwidth, corresponding demands are placed upon performance and tolerance of components used in FR circuits. An adaptive Radio Frequency (RF) filter for filtering first and second RF signals from an OFDM encoded carrier signal is provided, the adaptive RF filter comprises: a low-pass filter (102) configured to filter first and second RF signals, one from another, so as to provide a first RF output signal; the adaptive RF filter being tunable in response to one or more input signals, the at least one input signal being derived from a comparator (37,100), which compares the first RF output signal with a desired value for said first RF output signal, and provides a correction factor for varying a characteristic of the filter (102). An advantage of the invention is taht it facilitates filter of two OFDM encoded RF signals, the first typically at 8.1 MHz and the second (unwanted) at 11.9 MHz, from a base-band signal, with a noise floor level of- 55 dB or better. Another advantage is that the filter is able to self calibrate and is able to take into account fluctuations which may affect performance, for example thermal drift, and automatically trim its characteristics so as to compensate for these fluctuations.
